Re-Post from B-School forum as I thought I may get better targeted responses from here.
My initial target careers out of MBA were Management Consulting or I-Banking. However, I grew stronger interest for Hedge Funds or Asset Management companies recently and thinking to go that route instead.
I had a few questions that I was hoping someone would be able to assist me with in order to make myself prepared before the August 2019 Wharton MBA entry:
- What majors will prepare me best for the career in HF or AM? I am thinking about double-majoring in Finance and Statistics to add to my existing Accounting knowledge and round up my profile.
- What is a typical Post-MBA title at a Hedge Fund or AM for someone who is able to sneak in without prior experience, for the career track to eventually become a PM? I know it is hard to get without prior exp., but still doable.
- How much value do HF and AM place on networking with them outside of b-school (i.e., emails, calls, visits, coffee chats close to their office)?
- What are some top firms that might be more open to hiring people without prior HF or AM backgrounds?
Thank you.
